Abstract: In 1994, the FDIC sought comment on a proposal to revise the
assessment base used by insured institutions to determine the premium
paid for deposit insurance. That initiative did not lead to a proposed
rule. Instead, the FDIC plans to revisit the issue with a new ANPRM on
alternative options for the deposit component of the assessment base
and on options regarding the float deduction and use of average daily
deposit balances.
